Hi again, petpuppy,
I just noticed this post (after nearly 4 years--!). By now you've probably had a review but maybe not?

I've heard that Social Security isn't pursuing the review idea as aggressively as they used to.

To answer your question, I had my first review nearly 2 years after I first went on SSDI and from time to time after that--maybe once every 5 years? When you get old enough to be transferred to the regular retirement category, you no longer have reviews.
